Re: New Member Intro

Good question, I am not going to answer it, but will throw in a bit of info and twist. First off I do not think that the 426 street wedge and the 413 long ram engine were ever offered in a common body style(same year, same body), so dyno comparisons would be the only options. My guess is that on the street in a common body style, that the 413 @ 390 hp would take the top end pull, but have a feeling that the 426 @365 might be the better engine for the 1/4 mile, and I say this because of the fuel system,,,,,

Hi All,

I'm new to the group and recently purchased a highly optioned, triple white 1964 300K Ram Convertible with AC. (Also scooped up a 300L convertible in the deal; pink silver over black vinyl with AC.) Currently in the midst of getting both cars back on the road as they were, essentially, museum pieces for the past 15+ years. The prior two owners were collectors who would just go out into their respective garages and stare at them for hours... and who can blame them?

Excited to be part of this group, although my girlfriend may start to hate you all for it LOL The more I read about street wedge four speeds and max wedge cars, the more I'm falling in love with them as well.

Since this group is so knowledgeable on the topic, I'm curious how my 390hp factory cross ram 413 wedge stacks up against the 426 street wedge as well as the maxie. In particular, how does it compare to the non-ramed 426SW in terms of torque and horsepower? (I recognize that the 426MW is a whole different ballgame.)

Warmest regards,

David Morrison
